Meta is rolling out its AI chatbot to Threads direct messages, expanding the assistant's presence across the company's messaging platforms.

Users can now chat with Meta AI directly through Threads DMs, joining the chatbot's existing availability on Facebook, Instagram, and WhatsApp. The rollout brings Meta's conversational AI tool to the company's text-based social network, offering users an additional way to interact with the assistant. Meta AI provides responses to questions, assists with writing tasks, and handles general inquiries. Meta continues to integrate its AI across its messaging ecosystem as part of a broader strategy to embed AI capabilities into core user experiences. The move aligns with similar integrations across Meta's other platforms, where the chatbot has been available in direct messaging since earlier this year. Threads users can access Meta AI through DMs like any other contact on the platform.
